Comments

  1. Velvet Oracle: usually more routers causes clutter anyway
  2. Junewex: who actually upgrades to two routers for anything more than bragging rights?
  3. Novamendez: usually mesh networks are more straightforward anyway
  4. Glitch Wolf: who designed this config and thought two routers were necessary tho?
  5. Marek: who thought two routers were still a good idea
  6. Umbra Sable: fwiw that advice is so basic, where's the nuance?
  7. Vanta Shard: what's wrong with having an extra router lying around?
  8. Grim Cinder: usually people get hung up on the idea that two routers are better than one, but in reality it's just a matter of placement and cable management – makes more sense to add AP
  9. Fathom Cipher: most people I know just upgrade their whole system
  10. Shadow Drift: mesh networking is getting weirdly oversold, imo. most houses don't need this level of coverage and will just end up creating more points of failure
  11. Luna: people still buy routers like they're toys
  12. Ember Wolf: usually this advice is super generic but here i actually agree with engadget - just means less clutter on my shelf
